by Victoria Schwab

This young adult fantasy series is set in a world where the dead are stored as records in a vast library-like dimension called the Archive, and follows a teenage girl trained as a Keeper — tasked with returning the dead if they wake and escape. The series blends mystery, supernatural atmosphere, and questions about grief and identity in a richly imagined world of overlapping realities.
